What he's saying is, I know the truth.
I know this shouldn't be happening.
I know that federal agents are breaking the law.
And yet I'm just too scared to say that publicly because I'm worried about my own job.
I mean, they just seem to be afraid of Trump and the base.
I mean, this is the story of the Republican Party today, completely subservient to Trump, completely powerless.
They've made Congress essentially irrelevant under Speaker Johnson.
And as a result, they're not willing to just show the basic courage that we should expect of every elected official, which is just to tell the truth.
And I do think that this is part of the problem that people see with Secretary Noem, is that she's obviously incompetent.
I mean, we knew that from the very beginning.
But she cannot manage to just get through a sentence without lying.
And even if you're a Republican, you've got to question whether that's the person you want representing the Department of Homeland Security, serving as a cabinet official in this government.
what needs to be uh what needs to be the next step here abolishing and getting rid of ice and and prosecuting the ice members yeah look the call for prosecution is one that i started weeks ago and i said look even before we discuss abolishing or whatever comes next with ice you gotta prosecute these people who are breaking the law and when i started saying that i got a lot of pushback
ICE officials, in particular, Todd Lyons, went after me.
But increasingly, we are hearing that call.
And recently, among Democratic leadership, I've heard that term as well, prosecute ICE, prosecute ICE.
This should be the clarion call for Democrats all across the country.
You cannot enforce the law if you think you're above it.
So that should be the first priority.
And it's actually something we might get some Republicans to agree with.
